Balmoral Road, Whitehaven, CA28 6UZ

Listed 21 May 2026 · price reduced 28 Sept 2026 · Whitehaven
Occupying a pleasant position within The Highlands, one of Whitehaven’s more sought-after residential areas, this attractive two-bedroom detached bungalow offers generously proportioned, well-presented accommodation, a large garden, driveway and detached garage. With everything arranged on one level, it should have broad appeal, particularly to those looking to downsize or enjoy the convenience of bungalow living. The property is approached via a private driveway providing off-road parking and access to the detached garage. Mature planting around the front adds greenery and gives the bungalow an established feel. Stepping inside, a long entrance hallway provides access to the accommodation. The lounge is particularly spacious, with plenty of room for a variety of furniture arrangements. A large window allows in plenty of natural light, while the feature fireplace provides an attractive focal point and creates a comfortable, welcoming living space. The kitchen is well proportioned and fitted with a range of wall and base units, complemented by wood-effect worktops and tiled splashbacks. There is a built-in oven and hob with extractor above, space for additional appliances and a useful external door providing convenient access to the garden. Both bedrooms are good-sized doubles, making this bungalow more spacious and versatile than many two-bedroom properties. The principal bedroom is especially generous and benefits from its own en-suite shower room, a particularly useful feature that is not always found within a bungalow of this type. The second bedroom also offers ample space for a double bed and furniture and could equally work well as a guest room or combined bedroom and home office. The main bathroom is conveniently positioned off the hallway and incorporates a bath with shower attachment, wash basin and WC, along with useful fitted storage. One of the property's most appealing features is undoubtedly the substantial garden. Extending around the bungalow, it provides considerably more outside space than might initially be expected. Predominantly laid to lawn, with mature shrubs, bushes and established planting, the garden offers plenty of scope for keen gardeners, families or simply those who value having a generous outdoor space. There are also paved areas with excellent potential to create attractive seating and entertaining spaces. Completing the exterior is the detached garage, offering secure parking or valuable additional storage, while the driveway provides further off-road parking. The Highlands is a popular residential part of Whitehaven, combining a quieter residential setting with convenient access to the town and its amenities. Whitehaven itself offers a good selection of shops, supermarkets, cafés and restaurants, together with its attractive historic harbour and marina. There are a number of schools within the wider area, while Whitehaven and Corkickle railway stations provide connections along the Cumbrian Coast Line. The town is also well placed for exploring the coastline and the western Lake District. With its detached design, two double bedrooms, en-suite facilities, generous garden, garage and sought-after location, this is a bungalow with plenty to offer. Viewing is highly recommended to appreciate both the accommodation and, in particular, the amount of outside space available.
